Describe something you learned in high school.

Describe something you learned in high school.

Describe one positive change you have made in your life.
One change I made that shaped my view,
I’ve learned to see what others walk through.
Through minds that work in unique ways,
And hearts that glow in quiet displays.
I’ve learned to pause, to truly be,
To feel their strength, so tenderly.
This shift has made my world more wide,
With deeper love and kinder stride.

What’s the most fun way to exercise?
Sometimes I groove with zero grace,
My dog just stares, “what is this race?”
He tilts his head, confused, dismayed,
“Wasn’t this yoga? She’s clearly strayed!”
No plan, no pose, just joyful trance
But hey, we call it cardio dance!

What book could you read over and over again?
In battle’s calm, the truths unfold,
Eternal voice through verses old.
Each reading clears the inner strain
The path through joy, through loss, through gain.
If you could be a character from a book or film, who would you be? Why?
If I were a soul from a tale well known,
I’d be Elizabeth of Eat, Pray, Love, on my own.
Of duty and dreams, I weave every thread,
With verses I rise where others might tread.
In silence I wander, in rhythm I heal,
With laughter and love, I soften what’s real.
A seeker, a giver, with fire and grace
Writing my truth in life’s sacred space.
What animals make the best/worst pets?
No pet is worst, it’s all about care,
The bond you build, the love you share.
Each soul, in fur or feathered flight,
Shines when treated just right.
What job would you do for free?
“If unpaid, I’d still craft verse,
To mend the soul and soothe its thirst.
A poet’s voice seeks no reward
Just freedom where the dreams are stored.”
What Olympic sports do you enjoy watching the most?
I seldom watch the games unfold,
The medals won, the stories told.
But grace in motion speaks to me
Like gymnasts floating weightlessly.
Or archers still, with focused aim,
Their silence whispering the flame.
I see in sport what poems show
A quiet strength, a steady flow.
How would you improve your community?
For little feet and souls so wise,
A world of love before their eyes.
With hands that guide and hearts that cheer,
I’d fill their days with warmth and care.
Through laughter bright and stories told,
I’d bridge the young and hug the old.
How have you adapted to the changes brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic?
I learned to yield, I learned to sway,
Like trees that bend but never fray.
I learned to introspect, observe, and grow,
To trust myself, to ebb and flow.
The bonds of family, strong and true,
Have deepened as we journeyed through.
The online world has made me see,
The value time holds precious and free.
The storm has passed, yet I remain,
Changed yet whole, through loss and gain
